Ok, I really have no idea how all of this works, but I have been reading 
about
how the wages for photographers have fallen through the floor and how the 
current
contract are fairly draconian etc. If this is such a huge problem, why don't 
the
shooters form a guild or union or something? Am I barking up the wrong tree?
Here in Hollywood everyone is in a guild or union or something.

Just a question.
